Sean Hannity Unplugged -- Embattled Fox News Host Opens Up

In recent months, Sean Hannity, host of the #1 program on cable news and the #2
nationally syndicated political talk radio show, has been at the
tip of the spear. Day in and day out, his programs nightly on Fox News and
during the day on radio have featured some of the best original reporting and
commentary – and debate – on the divisive and polarizing issues that have
arisen since the election of Donald J. Trump as president one year ago. For his
efforts in trying to give President Trump a fair hearing, Hannity has
been targeted for destruction by Media Matters and other left wing
individuals and groups.

With 20 hours a week on the air
(radio and TV), Hannity rarely gives interviews on other programs. An exception
was his first appearance at the start of Fox News host Jesse Watters weekly show Watters’
World on FNC last Saturday evening November 11.

Hannity’s interview with Watters was
pre-recorded in Hannity’s studio at Fox News headquarters in New York City. It
proved to be an interesting discussion of fake news and where, in Hannity’s
view, we go from here. A partial transcript below starts with Hannity’s comment
about the surprising victory of Donald Trump on November 8, 2016:

HANNITY: Nobody listened. . . But the
people who are suffering listened.

Watters then played a montage of
video clips from CNN, MSNBC, and the broadcast networks of mainstream media
anchors and hosts weeping and wailing on the night of 11/8/16 when they
realized that the unthinkable – the victory of Donald J. Trump – was actually
happening.

HANNITY: This meltdown has gone on
for a year. . . This is now bordering on a psychotic, collective breakdown by
the left. They can’t handle how wrong they were….

There is a swamp. There are
forces that are working every day that want this president out – no matter how
they do it. You’ve got the Deep State, you’ve got the liberal media, you’ve got
the Democrats, then you’ve got weak, timid, spineless Republicans and Never
Trumpers. They want him out! They’ll do anything they can do to get this man
out of office.

JESSE WATTERS: And they’re doing it
day after day and I believe it’s because the Democrats are completely shut out
of power so the media now is the tip of the spear. Trump has declared war on the
media. Let’s look at the history going back a year of Trump vs. the press. Roll
it!

At this point, another selection of
video clips highlighting the media’s unfair and biased reporting on the
administration of President Trump was shown.

WATTERS: Who do you think is winning?
Right now, the ratings and circulation are up with the media but credibility is
way down.

HANNITY: I don’t think they’ll ever
recover credibility-wise. The single greatest quality of Donald Trump is that
he’s not going to take your lies, he’s not going to take your misinformation,
he calls you out for what you are. This media bias thing – we conservatives
have talked about for years – now you see it, day after day, night after night,
newspaper article after newspaper article. I don’t see how they recover any
credibility. . . I think people are hip to media bias. I said in 2007 that
journalism is dead. It’s buried, it’s finished.

It’s sad because people deserve the
truth. I definitely have a conservative view, because I feel that conservatism
works. But you just have to look at the truth sometimes. They’re [the MSM] so
ideological – everything is seen within the prism of this hatred that they have
toward the president. It’s not good for the country.
